Today, Mayor Joe Hogsett and DMD joined Westside CDC and partners to cut the ribbon on 2 new homeownership opportunities on the near westside made possible in part by Vacant to Vibrant, the City's pilot program aimed at increasing affordable housing. In July 2023, the City of Indianapolis awarded $5.86 million to support the creation of more than four dozen homes available for rent, ownership and lease-to-purchase. Of those, $300k + 4 vacant lots went toward supporting the vision of Westside CDC. Thanks to the hard work of Cliff's Construction, LLC. and additional supporting funds from Citizens Energy Group National Urban League and Indianapolis Neighborhood Housing Partnership (INHP), these two homes are now available for families making 80% or below Area Medium Income.
